هل يقطع الصلاة ليجيب أحد والديه إذا دعاه ؟
عندما كنت صغيرة كانوا يقولون لي لو شرعت في الصلاة ثم سمعت أحد والديك يناديك فاقطعي الصلاة على الفور واذهبي لتلبية النداء ثم عودي فأعيدي الصلاة.
فهل لهذا القول وجه من الصحة؟
الجواب :
الحمد لله
الحمد لله
إذا كان المسلم في صلاة فريضة فإنه لا يقطعها لنداء أبيه أو أمه ، لكن له أن ينبه من يناديه إلى أنه منشغل بالصلاة ، إما بالتسبيح ، أو رفع الصوت بالقراءة ، أو نحو ذلك .
ويشرع له أن يخفف في صلاته ، فإذا انتهى منها أجاب النداء .
وقد روى البخاري (707) عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ رضي الله عنه عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : ( إِنِّي لَأَقُومُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُطَوِّلَ فِيهَا فَأَسْمَعُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ فَأَتَجَوَّزُ فِي صَلَاتِي كَرَاهِيَةَ أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمِّهِ ) .
فهذا يدل على مشروعية التجوز في الصلاة ، وتخفيفها لعارض يشغل بال المصلي .
وإذا كانت الصلاة نافلة : فإن علم من أبيه أو أمه أنهما لا يكرهان إتمامه للصلاة : أتمها ، ثم أجابهما بعد فراغه ، وإن علم أنهما يكرهان إتمامها وتماديه فيها : قطعها ، وأجابهما ، ولا شيء عليه في ذلك ، ثم يعيد صلاته من جديد .
روى البخاري (3436) ومسلم (2550) – واللفظ له - عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه عن النبي صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ : ( كَانَ جُرَيْجٌ يَتَعَبَّدُ فِي صَوْمَعَةٍ فَجَاءَتْ أُمُّهُ فَقَالَتْ : يَا جُرَيْجُ أَنَا أُمُّكَ كَلِّمْنِي . فَصَادَفَتْهُ يُصَلِّي فَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ أُمِّي وَصَلَاتِي ، فَاخْتَارَ صَلَاتَهُ ، فَرَجَعَتْ ثُمَّ عَادَتْ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ فَقَالَتْ : يَا جُرَيْجُ أَنَا أُمُّكَ فَكَلِّمْنِي . قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أُمِّي وَصَلَاتِي ، فَاخْتَارَ صَلَاتَهُ . فَقَالَتْ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ هَذَا جُرَيْجٌ وَهُوَ ابْنِي وَإِنِّي كَلَّمْتُهُ فَأَبَى أَنْ يُكَلِّمَنِي ، اللَّهُمَّ فَلَا تُمِتْهُ حَتَّى تُرِيَهُ الْمُومِسَاتِ . قَالَ : وَلَوْ دَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُفْتَنَ لَفُتِنَ ... ) الحديث .
وبوّب له النووي رحمه الله :
" باب تقديم بر الوالدين على التطوع بالصلاة وغيرها " .
قال النووي رحمه الله :
" قَالَ الْعُلَمَاء : كَانَ الصَّوَاب فِي حَقّه إِجَابَتهَا لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ فِي صَلَاة نَفْل , وَالِاسْتِمْرَار فِيهَا تَطَوُّع لَا وَاجِب , وَإِجَابَة الْأُمّ وَبِرّهَا وَاجِب , وَعُقُوقهَا حَرَام , وَكَانَ يُمْكِنهُ أَنْ يُخَفِّف الصَّلَاة وَيُجِيبهَا ثُمَّ يَعُود لِصَلَاتِهِ ... " انتهى .
وينظر : "فتح الباري" ، للحافظ ابن حجر رحمه الله ، "الموسوعة الفقهية" (20/342) .
وجاء في "الدر المختار" – من كتب الحنفية – (2 / 54) :
" ولو دعاه أحد أبويه في الفرض لا يجيبه ، إلا أن يستغيث به " انتهى .
أي يطلب منه الغوث والإعانة .
وقال الشيخ ابن عثيمين رحمه الله :
" الوالدان إذا نادياك وأنت تصلي : فإن الواجب إجابتهما ، لكن بشرط ألا تكون الصلاة فريضة ، فإن كانت فريضة فلا يجوز أن تجيبهما ، لكن إذا كانت نافلة فأجبهما .
إلا إذا كانا ممن يقدرون الأمور قدرها ، وأنهما إذا علما أنك في صلاة عذراك ، فهنا أشر إليهما بأنك في صلاة : إما بالنحنحة أو بقول سبحان الله أو برفع صوتك في آية تقرؤها أو دعاء تدعو به حتى يشعر المنادي بأنك في صلاة ...
وإن كان من الآخرين الذين لا يعذرون ويريدون أن يكون قولهم هو الأعلى فاقطع صلاتك وكلمهم ...
أما الفريضة : فلا تقطعها لأحد إلا عند الضرورة ، كما لو رأيت شخصا تخشى أن يقع في هلكة في بئر أو في بحر أو في نار ، فهنا اقطع صلاتك للضرورة ، وأما لغير ذلك فلا يجوز قطع الفريضة " انتهى .

Should he interrupt his prayer in order to answer one of his parents if they call him?
Is it true that if one is praying and ones parent calls for them they are to immidiately leave prayer go their parent and then after go and restart the prayer. I was told this when i was a lot younger is there any truth to it?.
Praise be to Allaah.
If a Muslim is offering an obligatory prayer, he should not interrupt it in order to answer the call of his father or mother. But he can alert the one who is calling him to let him know that he is busy with the prayer, either by saying tasbeeh (“Subhaan Allah”) or by raising his voice in recitation and the like.
And it is prescribed for him to make the prayer brief, then when he has finished he can answer the call.
Al-Bukhaari (707) narrated from Abu Qataadah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Sometimes I stand in prayer, intending to make it lengthy, then I hear a child crying, so I make my prayer brief because I do not want to cause hardship to his mother.”
This indicates that it is prescribed to make the prayer brief if there is something that is distracting the worshipper.
If it is a naafil prayer, if he knows that his father or mother will not object to him completing the prayer, he may complete it and then answer them once he is free. But if he knows that they will object to him completing the prayer he may interrupt his prayer and answer them, and there will be no blame on him for that. Then he can go back and start praying again.
Al-Bukhaari (3436) and Muslim (2550) narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Jurayj used to worship in his cell, and his mother came to him. She said: ‘O Jurayj! I am your mother, speak to me.’ She found him praying and he said: ‘O Allaah, my mother or my prayer?’ And he chose his prayer. She went away, then she came back a second time and said: ‘O Jurayj! I am your mother, speak to me.’ He said: ‘O Allaah, my mother or my prayer?’ And he chose his prayer.
She said: ‘O Allaah, this is Jurayj and he is my son, and I spoke to him but he refused to speak to me. O Allaah, do not let him die until he has seen prostitutes.’” He said: “If she had prayed that he be tempted, he would have fallen prey to temptation.”
Al-Nawawi gave this report the title: Honouring one’s parents takes precedence over voluntary prayer and other actions.
Al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
The scholars said: What would have been correct in this case is answering her, because he was offering a naafil prayer and continuing with it is voluntary and not obligatory, whereas answering one’s mother and honouring her is obligatory, and disobeying her is haraam. He could have shortened his prayer and answered her, then gone back to his prayer… End quote.
See: Fath al-Baari by al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him), al-Mawsoo‘ah al-Fiqhiyyah, 20/342
It says in al-Durr al-Mukhtaar (2/54) - which is a Hanafi book:
If either of his parents calls him during an obligatory prayer, he should not answer unless his parent is urging him to come and help. End quote.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
If your parents call you when you are praying, it is obligatory to answer them, on condition that the prayer is not an obligatory one. If it is an obligatory prayer, it is not permissible to answer them, but if it is a naafil prayer, you should answer them.
But if they are people who give things their due measure and if, when they realise that you are praying, they will excuse you, then in this case you should indicate to them that you are praying – either by clearing your throat or saying “Subhaan Allah” or raising your voice in the verse or du‘aa’ you are reciting – so that the one who is calling will realise that you are praying.
But if they are otherwise, and they are people who will not make excuses or who want an immediate response, then you should interrupt your prayer and speak to them.
But in the case of an obligatory prayer, you should not interrupt it for anyone except in the case of necessity, such as if you see someone who you fear will fall into mortal danger, such as falling into a well or into the sea or into a fire. In that case, you should interrupt your prayer because it is a case of necessity.
Otherwise, it is not permissible to interrupt an obligatory prayer. End quote.
